Chair Makeover: Miss Rose
by

(IC: blogger)
A thrift store chair gets a makeover.
Quite weak and very damaged, it was held together with duct tape.
Frame broke and scratched, this chair had potential.
Some wood gouging but, I could fill it. With wood glue and filler, the joints and damaged legs won't be noticed.
Glued, clamped and wood filled all of the areas that needed it.
When dried, sanded down.
Then painted.
Then I lightly sanded and re stained some areas of the carving. Then hand painted around the rose and leaves with black paint...and into some of the crevices of the carving.
Upholstered the seat. A velvet, warm colored, stripe fabric.
Now she looks so pretty!
Enjoyed the project?
